The 126 Worst Cubs

[Balsa]

Saw this on the impatient website, http://fireloupiniella.wordpress.com/

 

Really, really funny reviews of some of the worst Cubs to don the Uniform, and some horrible remembered moments.

 

My favorite so far is Enrique Wilson.

Someone saw the NSBB thread about Fassero :shock:

 

They used the pic I posted and the comment of "We knew ye to well"

Was Damien Miller really that bad?

Nope.

I can't think of a more annoying trend than the "fireXXX" websites that sprout up the day after a new coach is hired.

 

Does someone still think this is funny or cute? It isn't.

[J.R.]

That site is awesome.

You should probably read what's on the site before criticizing.

Worse, actually.

In July 2001, I sat next to the president and lone member of the Robert Machado fan club.

 

The guy kept telling his little brother how awesome machado was. . . . was sickening.

I wasn't talking about the content of the site.

i disagree wit hthe worst moment for francis beltran, the loss he was part of against the cards was many times worse. if i remembe correctly we had a 9 run lead and he gave up 3 or 4 walks and a few runs

If you say so. I will give you the fact he was bad with the bat, but his defensive abilities and the way he called a game is one of the reason the cubs made the playoffs that year. I dont consider him to be that bad of a player.

I think this may be one of my favorite quotes from the site.

 

If you went to a Cubs game from 1988 through 1990, you were more likely to nail Cindy Sandberg than you were to see Wrona collect a hit.

He did have a key hit when Maddux outpitched Dennis Martinez to clinch the NL East in 89' when the Cubs beat the Expos.

 

That's what I'll remember him for.

wow, that site is bad.

Is it weird that I totally got the irony of the joke, yet still clicked the link . . . just in case? ;)

Anyone want to guess who #1 will be?

 

I'm guessing Hundley or Hawkins.

[ConstableRabbit]

Anyone want to guess who #1 will be?

 

I'm guessing Hundley or Hawkins.

 

That would depend on who was the worst compared to expectations/salary or who was literally the worst.

He's factoring salary and expectations into matters, which is why I chose those two. You could make a pretty good argument for Neifury, but the only people who thought he'd do well were kidding themselves. Come on, the guy put up a negative OPS+ (which I didn't even know was possible until I looked him up) in his first 45 major league ABs. That has to tell you something.

How about Bobby Murcer?

 

Salary/Expectations/got for Bill Madlock/Not very good for 2 years.

 

Edit: After looking up his numbers after I posted(which I do way to often) Murcer wasnt as bad as I remembered. I was actually trying to point out that the Cubs have been bad for along time and there have been a lot of guys probably more suited to be worst Cub ever than Todd Hundley or Latroy Hawkins. Hundley was terrible and a terrible signing. I cant imagine him not being in Top 5 though.
